Description

The Station is an Arts Centre, and is especially for young people. The programme of work being developed is one that allows opportunities for professional artists and companies to create, develop, and show work in a youth environment.

Our main space is a great ‘blank canvas’ room to hire for theatre groups for either a rehearsal or performance space. Previously we have welcomed local musicals, Bristol Old Vic examinations and large scale gigs for the Colston Hall & BIMM.

The space has full tech facilities, a small backstage area and is able to have a bar for evening performances (which can be provided by the Station’s supplier) in a triangle space which connects to the hall. We highly recommend coming to visit this large, adaptable and light space in a great city centre location!
